Cool Unrefitted Boeing 738 to 7M8 or densified Oasis 738 aircraft Swap - Seat loss, etc.
Hey guys,

I wanted to check if I'm understanding 738 equipment swaps correctly. I was originally booked in 15D which is the second exit row in the original 738 configuration. Due to an aircraft swap to a Project Oasis aircraft, I am now in a Main Cabin non-reclining seat in front of the exit row.

Both the original 738 configuration and the Oasis configuration have 3 MCE rows and 2 exit rows. And of course, the Oasis configuration has more MC seats. Shouldn't AA automatically reassign seats in kind? Or did it not happen because I was already checked in when the swap occurred?

738 "original" MCE rows 7-9 ==> Oasis MCE 8-10
738 "original" exit rows 14-15 ==> Oasis exit rows 16-17

Also, is there any way to be notified of this change? An Expert Flyer alert would not notice this type of aircraft change, correct?
